In the long run, dental implants are more cost effective, too. They are designed to last a lifetime, so they will never have to be replaced, and there are no special cleaning agents or methods needed to maintain them (just regular brushing and flossing as with natural teeth).
These alternatives to dentures have lots going for themâbut the costs are higher. Implants are a good long-term solution to replacing lost teeth, but theyâre not cheap. Bridges, dentures, and implants replace missing teeth. A bridge requires filing two adjoining teeth, which can make them weaker and prone to decay. Dentures often have fit problems and can interfere with taste. For an implant, a titanium screw is placed in the jawbone and a prosthetic tooth is attached. A proper implant has no physical downsides and has good longevity, says Dr. Mark Wolff, associate dean at New York Universityâs College of Dentistry.
